Coronavirus Could Have Peaked In Spain

Health officials in Spain are saying that the coronavirus could have peaked here, as daily infections have fallen four days in a row. The news comes as figures also show that 16,780 people have recovered from the virus in Spain, which has claimed 7340 lives up to this point.

The number of new infections last Thursday peaked at 8271, this fell on Friday to 7933, on Saturday to 7516, and yesterday the figure reported was 6875. British doctor Anna Clifton says “The trend is positive. We’re seeing a steady decline in the number of new cases each day which means that the worst could now be behind us.”

“However, we mustn’t be complacent,” Dr. Clifton continues. “It’s more important than ever that all of us here in Spain respect the lockdown conditions. We may have turned a corner, but the virus could see a resurgence if we don’t maintain the lockdown situation.”

Spain now has more cases of coronavirus than China where the pandemic originated. In Andalucia there are 5405 cases of the infection, with 1321 of those being in the Malaga area.
